The Valley Virginian. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1865-1895, 1887-01-27

The good people of Washington city are
stirred up because of paper presented
in the Senate on the 21st by Senator Col
quit, from the Woman's National Tenn
perance Association. It was memorial
containing charges of the most serious
character against the Commissioners of
the District of Columbia, with reference
to their management Of the affairs of the
District, and especially to the special ia
vor they shox we'd the bawdy house keep
ers, liquor dealers. gamblers and lottery
and policy men. According to the signers
of the memorial, many of whom were in
the gallery of the Senate when it was read,
the commissioners put premium upon all
sorts of vice and immortality. Probably
Washington is no more wicked than other
American cities of the same. population.
But the vices that exist come under the
scrutiny of the curious and prying more
frequently than in other places, because
the city is more cosmopolitan, and there
are more inquisitive sight-seers, who are
prone to minimize allithe good things and
maximize all the bad things which come
under their observation. There vices and
debauchery do exist. however, yet it is
possible the citizens of that place do not
realize the extent of them. Everybody
feels that he has proprietary interest in
the capital of the Nation, and that he is
simply sweeping before his own door when
he makes move to reform what is
immoral and vicious. Thus, as all eyes
are turned to Washington, especially dur
ing the session of Congress, the wickedness
complained of attracts more attention
when it is exposed, and arouses a more
widespread Indignation. with a common
surate desire for its reform. And then.
too, Congress has power to act and to enact
inhibitory legislation. What can be. ought
to. be done to abate the nuisances and GRIM
inalties which can be reached by legisla-
tion in Washington, but it should not stop
there. These ''sores on the body politic:'
as cities have been termed, ought to be-
doctored everywhere, and where the law
can effect an amelioration in their con-
ditions it should find support and en-
forcement in a refined and christian pub
lie sentiment.
The Valley Virginian. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1865-1895, 1887-01-27

every part of the social and civil structure
that penetrates into the moral being of
a whole people to faint and destroy, is mas
ter of the situation stronger than pub lie
sentiment and above the grasp of the ma
tion s power. We are sure if some of our
national legislators could rise above the
plane of the demagogue-stu the phi
losophy of the laws they enact and the
influence they are to have upon the des-
tiny of the nation, they would at least
give this great subject deliberate, brave
and courageous consideration in the
light of public duty and public response
bility. A great moral force upheaved and
destroyed human slavery, when politicians
faltered and covered. A great moral
power is moving the politicians. stepping
with cautious and suspicious tread, it is
true, against the moral blight of polyga-
my. And even a greater moral mOmen-
tum will be given to the crusade against
Intemperance, which will crush down the
time serving demagogue who panders to
the slums and cess pools of vice, and alb
breviates and compromises his manhood in
the presence of great duty affecting the
happiness and contentment of the whole
people and the destiny of a christian ma
ton. Men will be raised up equal to the
vital and overshadowing interests involved.
The halls of legislation and the pulpit will
be purged of cravens. and heroes equipped
for the revolution will come to the front
to do for intemperance what.was done for
chattel slavery, and is now being attempt
ed for polygamy. Moral pigmies cannot
arrest the forces at work or check the on
sweeping current that is carrying on its
bosom the hopes and happiness of the gen.
Grafton present and generations to come.

Alesantlria Gazettr.

The GAZETTE is now the oldest paper IN
the State, and with few exceptions the Old,
est in the country, and its usefulness ts.
been demonstrated and appreciated during
the EIGHTY SEVEN YEARS Gifts existence In
its columns has always been found mirror
of passing events, and the careful chron.
cling of the history ofwhat is going on in the
world has ever been its aim. 1t is Away.
welcomed in the household, while IL to,
counting room and workshop it has oecom.
invaluable.
The GAZETTE has better faciities ior OBJ
tanning news than any paper outside of the
national capital. Situated as it is so co..
to the great centre OF news, it enjoys daily
the benefit of the Associated Press d:
patches from every part ofthc world herce
Its patrons can read from its columns in the
evening what has transpired that day il
every portion Of our own domain as well 8;
from every part of the habitable globe
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning pa.
pers.
Another feature that serves to make The
GAZETTE great deaideratum with mer
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York, Baltimore, Chicago and other
centres.
The local department furnishes iuIl and
complete history of everything that occurs
in and near the city, and this feature will,
as ever, receive careful attention.
Correspondence from Washington, Rich
mond and every section of the State, IS pub
lshed regularly. and all events of interes!
occurring within the bounds of the Com
monwealth are to be found in the columns
of the GAZETTE.
The GAzErrE's circulation il steadily ia
orsasing, especially among people who con-
suit its advertising columns before purcha'
ing. That this is self-evident may be Infer
red from the fact that large country edi'
tion-nearly as large as the daiIy--is sent
al over this section of country three dne'
4 week, and is read by thousands, most Of
whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantage of ad'
7ertiaing in the GAZETTE are, therefore, aP'
parent.
